i have always been told, and my own belief and experience is, try to resolve any dispute involving the police with the first officer on the scene if possible. my experience is that the police ajudicate those situations they are involved in and the price only goes up the more people become involved. and of course there is the truism that, "the foreigner always pays"

 

Not sure where you found that? Here is the actual law:

(l) Firearm refers to any handheld or portable weapon, whether a small arm or light weapon, that expels or is designed to expel a bullet, shot, slug, missile or any projectile, which is discharged by means of expansive force of gases from burning gunpowder or other form of combustion or any similar instrument or implement. For purposes of this Act, the barrel, frame or receiver is considered a firearm.

The part the gets you with airguns is the "any similar instrument" part. The interpretation of that is that any implement with a barrel that expels a projectile from compressed force (air or CO2) is considered a gun by law.

 

The law says if it has a brass or bronze barrel it is not a gun so foreigners can own one.

 

Goodluck Commercial, besides Golden Rule Store, sells airguns and accessories.

 

In this actual court case, a judgment was rendered, an Airgun is not a firearm.

 

When I was a kid we have fun using blowpipe or blowgun, it can be very primitive, just a plastic straw and some amu, we use dried green peas (turn yellow when dried), small stones, plastic pellets, etc. Indians use them with toxic arrows in fights and for hunting. Like slingshots, you can get them primitive and very basic and up to very advanced, can be a cheap solution

 

confirmed today jan 31 that cangs has two models. one takes 100 pumps of air for five shots, the other model ten shots per co2 cartridge. 8k to 10k for the guns, extra for pump, co2 and pellets. they do sell to foreigners

 

Try Cangs dept store, north road, they usually have a selection of models. Also spare parts like seals & gaskets etc.
